Hi everyone! Am I ever so thankful that I have found this website! I really needed to find some people I can relate to and get advice from... I'm sorry if my story is too long, but here it goes....

My DH and I will be married 3 years this year, we have a son in which we share, and he also has a son from a previous marriage. I believe that my SS BM is out to make my life as miserable as possible and she is succeeding. I met my husband while he was going through their divorce. The BM left my husband for his sister's husband. YEAH! anyway. My SS was only 2 years old at the time and I instantly fell in love with him and his daddy. I've always treated him like my own. Even after my son was born I never treated him any different. When he came for his visitions he has always clung to me over his BF. Not that he didn't love his daddy but I was the one he always wanted to do for him. :)--- but his BM is HORRID. From the beginning of mine and my DH's relationship she always called complaining about something, but it wasn't until I was pregnant that she started causing problems with me. As soon as we told my SS that we were having a baby and that he would be a big brother she's been out to get me. During my pregnancy she done things that constantly kept my nerves on edge. Things like cursing my unborn child and other low things that I won't get into as it's been long ago. There were times where I didn't know if my pregnancy would be able to withstand my nerves. When my son was 4 months old she called wanting to talk to my husband and all I told her was she could leave a msg and I would tell him to call b/c he was outside mowing. She responded with her usual cussing and threating and she hung up on me. I had all I could take so I called her back and told her if she pulled up in my drive I would give her what she had been threating to give and that's exactly what happened! A few months later her husband called and said she wanted to make amends and that's what I did. I let things go and I was nice to her. So nice that we would actually email each other and had a joint birthday party for my SS... But she still called nagging my husband and telling him what to do and he would do it. It was like what I said didn't even matter, it came to a point where I told him I was his wife not her and I filed for divorce. When the BM found out we split she started calling me about my DH visitations with her son and I told her I had my own things to worry about and she would have to deal with that. --Well, my DH and I decided to work things out and I moved back home. He agreed that things would be better and he would stop letting her & her husband bully him so much. And he did. His lawyer even wrote a letter stating that she was no longer suppose to call or have any verbal contact of any kind unless SS was on meds or something else... the day they got the letter she called my phone with death threats. I've not always been innocent when he came to her, I would cuss back and all that, but this time I had done NOTHING but come back to my husband! I hadn't even had any contact with her since the month before about those visitations... She then said she wouldn't send my SS back as long as my DH was back with me. And sure enough she hasn't sent him in almost 2months. We even missed his pre-K graduation because of her and her drama... Out of all things she had done making us miss that broke my heart... We should have been there... We have a court date for the 22nd to finally see my SS... A lot of this to me sounded like she was jealous, but she is married to my husband's ex brother in law and I didn't see a reason for her to be jealous. She has the new house and new cars and all this so why is she hating on me.. I've done nothing but care and love my SS that's it... I never caused her any problems that she didn't start... I know that it may not sound real bad by just reading what I wrote, but there is SO much more... I'm seriously afraid to go out in public with the fear she will cause a scence. Please somebody give me advice. And once again I'm sorry I wrote a book instead of just an forum entry...
